Return Matches in July

The return matches with other clubs' senior sections is upon us.

As with tradition those who played in the first leg have preference in team selection for the return, however, as we also know there are call offs and reserves are always needed.

If you want and are able to play on the dates shown below either tick your name on the club notice board posting (available later today) if you represented Strathmore in the first leg or score it out if you are unable to play.

Match result v Royal Perth (H) 10th June

The points were evenly shared 3 -3 in this hard fought match on what was a bright and blustery day.

Perth, on their 'home away from home' gave us a tough fight with a team, like that of Strathmore, required to call on several players at short notice to make up the round dozen for what was a very enjoyable match. Thank you to those who heeded the call on both sides.

Compliments are extended to the greenkeeper and his team for the condition of the course and the club house staff for the splendid meal served up after the match, both of which were essential in making the day an all round success.

WHITE TEES - MEDAL FORMAT

SWEEP GBP1.00

Results:

On a beautiful day with hardly a breeze in the air and the greens in excellent condition only a handful of players played to anywhere near their handicaps.

Graeme Hunter walked away with the medal with a net 68 with Sandy Robertson second on a count back with Lee Bushby (both 73).

Ian Ellvers took the 2nd division title.

With a late adjustment to numbers we had a 4 ball at the tail of the competition. This will not happen again as the time taken was excessive and affected others on the course.
